Kayford Mountain Reclamation Direct Action

44 people risked arrest Oct 24th on Kayford Mountain, WV by trespassing on a
Patriot Coal Company "reclamation" site to plant trees. Once all the
trees were planted and the activists were not under arrest, they walked
back off with their shovels.

Mountain Top Removal creates a fraction of the jobs needed for a healthy Appalachian economy.  A recently propsed Srip Mine operation claimed it would cost 250 million for the project and create 250 jobs...  250 jobs an hundreds of miles of destroyed mountains and streams.  Maybe there's another way to create some jobs...?

Move On to Clean Energy NOT unClean Coal

A MoveOn.org sponsored leafleting vigil for Clean Energy that just happened to take place in front of a Senators office. ~ DOWNLOAD

Why?

H.R.2454
American Clean Energy And Security Act of 2009
To create clean energy jobs, achieve energy independence, reduce global warming pollution and transition to a clean energy economy.

This is the Waxman-Markley comprehensive energy bill, known for short as "ACES," that includes a cap-and-trade global warming reduction plan designed to reduce ??economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions 17 percent by 2020. Other provisions include new renewable requirements for utilities, studies and incentives regarding new carbon capture and sequestration technologies, energy efficiency incentives for homes and buildings, and grants for green jobs, among other things.
